[PATCH v2 1/2] hyper-v: check frequency MSRs presence according to the specification

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov
Date: Thu Jun 22 2017 - 06:08:10 EST


Hyper-V TLFS specifies two bits which should be checked before accessing
frequency MSRs:
- AccessFrequencyMsrs (BIT(11) in EAX) which indicates if we have access to
frequency MSRs.
- FrequencyMsrsAvailable (BIT(8) in EDX) which indicates is these MSRs are
present.
Rename and specify these bits accordingly.
